TREx Community Lecture with Professor Jane Kent-Braun

Translating Research in Exercise Science (TREx) Community Lecture.

As we age, our muscles change. Old age has come to be associated with a loss of strength and related abilities that are assumed to be inevitable. But are they? In this talk, Professor Jane Kent-Braun will describe and distinguish the changes in human muscle function that result from aging and those that arise from lifestyle changes, such as decreased physical activity.

Public Welcome! Refreshments and conversation following the talk.
